I'm just checking back in after well a very long time 
No forum seems to be what I'm looking for so I'll just post here.
When I began playing *way back in the day* we spent a great many hours playing UO devloping our characters skills over days months and even years. Then the infmous pub 16 hit, and skills were easy and the game went item based.
It took me all but 4 hours in pub 16 to toss my account out, this is my 1st look back at UO since then.
For S&G's I did the 30 day trial, and from what I've come across not much has really changed from pub 16. Yes their is a bit of new content, however it's not UO. From what I've seen it's more a game set up for a 1-2 year turn around player base.
Yes I did the 30 day trial just to check it out, their are some cool players and some bad, but that is everywhere. Getting the skills and gold needed was pretty easy, and hitting a couple champs also just as easy to pop a couple scrolls. I thought about continuing but in the end the game is not what I wanted. I missed the old days where skills ment a heck of alot more than the gear you had.
Just a FYI after 30 days here was my main skill base over 3 players, most of the power scrolls I was able to buy pretty cheap, I did get a 120 tameing that I was able to trade off for 3 120's I wanted. So 30 days in, some fun was had and I got to goof off and play around a bit. I did this all alone, unguilded and no ganks when in PvP. I would suprise kill people

I had a 4th character I pvp's with but he was my suicide herder
Just get herding up and run around collecting mobs herding them to you, then run up and attack a play and stop herding, you both tend to die pretty fast.
PvP method, (Auto Follow) bola, dagger Poison ofc, then chug a greater agil, followed by total refresh, 90% of the time people are trying to run away at this point or before seems noboy likes to be dismounted it scares them, Assist would start a bandie if needed, and I just kept chugging total refreshses and *auto* following till one of us died
Sometimes I would switch to a fork to disarm, but usually didn't have to.
BTW the trick to stop this tactic is to take "1 step" I'm still in range of the auto follow and your out of my strikeing range. So if your dismounted and hit take a single step for a second, then run for your life or duke it out
Most of the people who got away were able to get away on mounts if I was not able to target the mount fast enough to block the remount.
It was cool to kill "several" tamers just sitting back with peace and vet.
Time to retire yet again, see you all in another 8-10 years
